[PATCH 5.14 157/162] software node: balance refcount for managed software nodes

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

From: Laurentiu Tudor <laurentiu.tudor@xxxxxxx>

commit 5aeb05b27f81269a2bf2e15eab9fc0f9a400d3a8 upstream.

software_node_notify(), on KOBJ_REMOVE drops the refcount twice on managed
software nodes, thus leading to underflow errors. Balance the refcount by
bumping it in the device_create_managed_software_node() function.

The error [1] was encountered after adding a .shutdown() op to our
fsl-mc-bus driver.
